Chapter 121 . Former Hero – Marries

[Although I am still incompetent and inexperienced, but please take care of me as your wife in the future, Amagi-dono… No, Danna-sama . ] (Aura)

What?

W… wife… she said… . ?

It’s evening right now .

With me becoming the victor in the tournament, we returned back to the hotel after the victory ceremony and whatnot to hold a celebration .

The members participating in the celebration are the six beloved girls of my harem, plus Kagura and Aura so the total is 8 people .

Leon, who fainted in the finals, has regained consciousness thanks to the healing magic, and he seems to be taking a day’s worth of rest at the hotel .

Caroin is accompanying him .

Caroin-san, this is your chance! . Even though I was wondering what kind of advice I should’ve told her, I gave up on interfering this much .

Yunikram returned to the Royal Capital because he had something to do .

That guy, he’s always busy doing something .
As expected from an unsung hero, I suppose . .

Coincidentally Mirabelle-san didn’t appear at the city entrance after the tournament ended by the way, .
Although I had already expected it, it still made me a little bit sad .

… .

… . Ha .

Due to Aura’s sudden words, my thoughts went wandering for a moment .

[Uh, wife? You mean, Aura… . And me?] (Haruto)

*Stirred*…

The victory celebration, which was peaceful up until just a short while ago, suddenly got stopped as if the time froze because of the sudden marriage declaration by Aura . Only my words disturbed the silence .

[Yes, during the duel, I was invited to the bed by the man who defeated myself . In other words, I was proposed to become a wife . ] (Aura)

Aura replied with the face full of confidence .

Somehow… I think there is a misunderstanding here .

[Wh… Wait for a moment? W-w-w-what is the meaning of this?!] (Sharon)

As time started to move again, Sharon began to seek an explanation from me .
Right behind her, both Rithina and Celes leaned in anticipation .

Laurier’s and Tanya’s smirks were implying [You’ve done it now] and as for Mina… She didn’t say any… No, although she seems to have not reacted in any way, she was staring at me intently despite on her appearance .

Kagura-san… I don’t understand what she is thinking .
Did she not think anything of it? or…

More importantly, I also don’t understand what this is about either .

[Etto… W,well, wait a minute . ] (Haruto)

First of all I calmed down three girls who were approaching me .

Let’s clarify what she just said earlier for now .

Etto… What is it? A duel? Did I do something during the duel?

Ah, it’s probably during our tournament match . I see .

Then, don’t tell me the invitation to the bed from the opponent who won…

Fumu fumu . I certainly told her to stay over tonight .

But, that’s… . Not it means… Eh? Eeeh?

It’s really a messed-up another world .
No, maybe I should’ve expected it beforehand?

[I have been focused on my duty as a knight up to now and I still have the duty to defeat the Demon Lord so I don’t know when I will lose my life . That’s why I too want to know the joy of being a woman since the opportunity presented itself . ] (Aura)

Aura said it with an embarrassedly flushed face .

I regained my calm a little .

[I see . ] (Haruto)

Aura has been preparing herself way before being invited by me during the semifinal match .

As expected from the Hero’s party member, her resolution is different .

[I see . But that’s not it!]

While I was understanding her reason here by myself, Sharon made a forceful retort . That was expected, I guess .

Wife .

Aura just said that she was going to become a wife, my wife . In other words, it meant being married .

Marriage .

Un, it somewhat . A word that makes one shudder .

For example, what is the relationship between me and the six girls in my harem right now? If I was asked about it, it wouldn’t be wrong to answer that it was essentially a marriage between us, which it was natural .

However, I was hesitant to put it into words .

[I just want to confirm it first . ] (Haruto)
[What is it?] (Aura)

I asked Aura for the second time, while calming down Sharon who was already gripping onto my collar .

[I am reluctant to ask this since I can neither refuse nor accept, but you aren’t talking about all of this just out of curiosity, are you?] (Haruto)

I’m not gonna reject it when someone is coming at me . That’s my motto . However I don’t want to have an unpleasant, reluctant relationship .

I want both parties to have a mutual agreement in the end .

And, the reason that I had invited her today was only to get a little chance to get closer with her . It’s not like I had intention to go beyond that, but it’s not like I have to expressly say it to her, right?

[O-of course . Umm… I am unfamiliar with love, but I have been admiring Amagi-dono’s personality and strength for a long time . Moreover, in the today battle, um, umm… . I could feel the determination from a strong-willed man!] (Aura)

Aura answered my question with all her might .

Strong-willed… . Strong-willed, what do you mean by strong-willed?

But, is that so, huh?
You have been admiring me for a long time?

Eh, I didn’t expect that .

I didn’t notice it at all, I always thought that she loved Leon . I am such a dense person .

Eh, wait a second .
It’s not the time to be happy about it .

I have understood Aura’s resolution .
Then what about me?

Wife, bride, marriage .

Although the words feel like they’re putting on a mysterious pressure… It’s necessary for me to return an answer filled with resolution . That’s right, just like during the final match .

Even though it’s the same words, but it’s weird that the impression is different on this situation!

[I understand . Everyone, that’s how it is . ] (Haruto)

I nod with an extremely serious face and declared it toward the girls here .

[Yes . Thank you very much . ] (Aura)

After hearing my acknowledgement, Aura knelt and bowed down to me .

Aura-san, that’s not what the wife usually does .

[Haruto! What about me? Am I not your wife?] (Tanya)

Since the situation was hard for Sharon, Rithina and Celes to comprehend,, Tanya disregarded them and asked me while clinging to my back .

Of course .

Only announcing Aura as my wife might’ve been a mistake .

[Tanya is obviously my bride as well . Not only Tanya, but everyone here are my brides too!]

Cheerfully, I declared it loudly .

[Yay . ]

Tanya began to kiss the nape of my neck in a good mood .

Uwaa, I’m shivering .

[Muu~…]

Sharon and the other three were making face that they weren’t convinced yet, what should I do?

I may be able to overcome their reluctance if I press further .

[Her Highness Princess . And also everyone . I am the unworthy Aura Rozes . I was allowed into being placed at the lowest seat of Amagi-dono’s wives . Because of the journey, I couldn’t accompany you from start, however my best regards from here on after . ]

Aura gave a weird greeting to everyone on this place .

That’s why I’ve already said it . That is not what wife usually does .

[Ue? …E,etto, umm… haa… . Yes . My best regards too . ] (Sharon)

Is it because they were dumbfounded by Aura’s greeting? Sharon and the others seems to have accepted it somehow .

[Well, it can’t be helped if the number of girls increase now, can it? Haruto is that kind of man after all . No matter how many it’ll increase by, don’t go and neglect us, okay?] (Laurier)

Laurier gets on my lap while saying it .

You’re always making a nice follow-up remark in good timing . Thank you .

[Of course . ] (Haruto)

I said that and pat Laurier’s head .

[Fufun . ]

Laurier happily acted like a spoiled child . She entrusted her head to my chest and moved it in delight . Cute .

[Laurier-dono can become adorable like that! The pleasure of being a woman is really amazing!] (Aura)

When she saw Laurier, Aura became somewhat excited .

[Well, it can’t be helped . ] (Rithina)
[Yes . It’s Haruto-sama after all . ] (Mina)

Rithina sits quietly next to me and takes my hand .
Then she holds my hand firmly and close to herself .
It’s been a long time since I felt her soft breasts!

Mina had moved quietly to my other side and took the other hand .
Then she put my hand below the hem of her skirt in between her thighs .
She sure understands my liking!

[… . Uh . ] (Celes)

Celes drew closer to my back before I knew it and snuggled up to my back next to Tanya . So sweet .

[Hawawa… T-there is no place left!] (Sharon)

Sharon who was late to notice it began to move in panic .
That’s very lovely in itself!

[Ha! Th-this is… The road of the wife is steeper than I thought . ] (Aura)

Aura, who saw this appearance for the first time, had her survival instinct ignited for some reason .
You will need to learn a lot of things after this .

But to be trained by the likes of me, that’s sound good!

And as usual, I was being surrounded by the girls’ soft skin, breasts and thighs around me, my lips being enclosed . I savor this highest of happiness .

Moreover, Aura will be joining the harem from today so it’ll be 7 people .

My strong will, I’ll make her taste her fully .

Nn? … 7 people?

When I realized it, there was a high-pitched sound in the room .

Ha .

Everyone turned to face the direction where the sound occurred .

In that place… There was Kagura-san who put her glass on the desk in full vigour .

Ah .

[Haru-kun… . !] (Kagura)
[Y-yes…!] (Haruto)

Kagura-san glances at me .

I was like a frog who was being stared at by the snake . I answered her on reflex .

Because of the marriage declaration with Aura, I had completely forgotten about it . Oh crap…

Unpleasant sweat is dripping .

[……]

A moment of silence .

The girls too seemed to forget about the current situation . They were watching the development while gulping .

[…I…]

[I, what about me?]

Ha?

Despite her pressure earlier, Kagura-san was nervous .

[Umm… A little while ago, you said… . Everyone here is your bride… . W-what about me?] (Kagura)
[Etto…?] (Haruto)

Nn?
What about me? What does that mean?
Is it what I’m thinking?

Eh? Really?

[You see… After we departed from Angel town, I was wondering when I’d be attacked by Haru-kun . However you didn’t put a hand on me at all so I thought that you just didn’t see me that way but then I see everyone here, I ended up thinking “what about me?” . ]

Is it to hide her embarrassment? Kagura-san keeps talking and talking .

[You see, I’ve been living by making swords as blacksmith for a long time… . T-that’s why I have no love experience either so I do not know what to do . I am also older so I am wondering if you’re not interested on me . I-if that is the case, I will leave the group from today, so I hope the young people can enjoy it later . ] (Kagura)

Did she feel embarrassed because everyone was paying attention to her? Kagura-san started to leave the room after deciding things for herself . .

It’s because she always appeared to be self-centered that I fumble about a good way to approach way but she has been always waiting for confession from me .

I was always being surrounded by girls, so I have ended up becoming insensitive in contrast . What a blunder .
